The mission of Boston Theater Company is to create new work while pushing the boundaries of theatre by exploring new ways to tell stories. We are rooted in the power theater has to unite, uncover and illuminate. We tell innovative stories that showcase the complexity of the human condition.
In 2021, Boston Theater Company (BTC) took a chance and brought the world of theater and sports together by launching the Road of Rainbows (ROR) 5K. This was the first ever fully inclusive LGBTQ+ 3.1 mile race Boston. At ROR everyone is welcome! We've removed gender requirements upon sign up (a very rare thing for athletic events), worked with a dedicated group of LGBTQ+ BIPOC counselors tasked with making the event something special, and held it at the historic Boston Common, a fully accessible location! Our pilot event in 2021 was so overwhelmingly positive that we're RORing back in 2022 and holding this event on PRIDE WEEKEND!
